Doubtful anyone else would know who she was, but Darlene Conley, who played Sally Spectra on CBS's The Bold and the Beautiful since 1989 passed away on Sunday. She was 72.
I knew who she was. I used to be a huge soap opera fan. In fact, my line-up would be:
The Price Is Right (I know this isn't a soap, but, this came on first) The Young and the Restless The Bold and the Beautiful As the World Turns
and Guiding Light
I remember Darlene as the very "larger than life" Sally Spectra. I didn't know that she had cancer. It's sad that she didn't win the battle.
I've been a long time on and off Bold and the Beautiful watcher. Yesterday when I visited SoapNet.com it find out what I have missed over the past couple days I read of Darlene's passing. Very sad, the character of Sally Spectra was one of B&B's best, and Darlene Connely was an amazing actress! RIP!
